“My name is Jim Lightfoot. I’m the photographer that shoots the center spreads for Easyriders magazine. The photo titled “Donut Contest” will be featured in February’s edition and hits bookstands Nov. 27th. I don’t get too philosophical with the photos. I will say that I only use real bikers. No stand-ins or look-a-likes. Every one of them is a busted knuckle wrencher and a rider.
Shooting for Easyriders has really been a dream come true for a guy who spent a good part of his life running a power tool, forklift, hammer, ladder, etc. and keeping his ol’ scoot running. My goal with the centerfold is to be true to those of us who live and breath motorcycles and know that being a biker takes a lot more than just owning a bike and leathers”
You can buy these photos and many others at Jim Lightfoot Photography.
you are two pieces of clothing away from this being a great picture 😉
Nice work Jim!
Make no mistake about it: Wall Street and Wal-Mart are both in business to make money. They make money by selling you products over and over again whether you need them or not. They are experts at marketing those products in such a way that you think you really do have to have them.
Thanks John. Zyon- I agree. I’ll get a bigger air compressor next time! Ukbiker- Just got back from Wall-Mart and bought a 12 pack of toilet paper.
Great work Jim. Keep up the work. L&R Larry
Jim,
Is that Myrna doing the tat in the second picture? She used to work with me and has a huge resemblence! Great stuff love the perspective!
Nice work, they draw you into them and gets you thinking.
Thanks Larry. Thanks Grey Beard. Gina- that gal’s name is Sari. She is an old friend and owns a hair place in Kansas City called Lady Luck. That was a crazy damn shoot too. Actually it was a re-shoot. The cops showed up at the first one. I’m not sure what the statute of limitations is in Missouri so I probably shouldn’t say much more. On a completly differnt note I will say that I will never throw another party without bananas.
Jim
GREAT Centerfolds!
They are all so good it will be hard to chose just one.
Keep up the great work

I’d like to see that top chick down the road a few miles with everything blown off! Every red-blooded bikers dream. I’d be HARD tryin’ to keep my eyes on the road, we’d better pull over to a nice WOODED spot fer a little RELAXATION an’ see what pops UP, heh, heh! I remember one time goin’ from Deadwood to Sturgis an’ seein’ a scooter pulld over an’ this babe bent over on a rock with her drawers down around her ankles, and the dude pourin’ the coals to her doggie-style, damn near fell of my putt laughin’! Ain’t life Grand!! Wiz
Thanks Rogue. Buy ’em all! 😉 Wiz- Thats funny as hell. Nate, an ‘ol timer buddy of mine who built that springer she’s riding told her he’d give her a ride and show her how to hold on to the saddle horn. Unfortunately we shot that in his shop in February with three feet of snow outside. The air compressor we used to blow her hair with was in a shed outside. The condensation froze on the first several burst and shot a load of small ice chunks at her face. She was a freakin’ trooper.
Great job Jim.
Hey Lightfoot , awesome picture , looks like it fly off the wall and down the road. Waay Coool. glide-o-rama
Hope the girl ride another mile and it will be a jaw dropper….lol.
Nice vision and fresh pics.
Ha ha JIm,
Sounds like crazy fun! Bananas? Pray tell………..
Thanks Twofeather. Much appreciated. Thanks live2rideaglide. I’m a glide man myself. Thanks jatinder pal. I’ll put more gas in the tank next time!
Gina- Lets jut say there was a citizen at the shoot who had never been around a get-together with a bunch of old bikers. This person had a total mental freakout and had to be taken to the emergency room. Later on I got a very apologetic phone call from this person saying that their condition was due to a “potassium deficiency”. This MUST have been the only reason they completely lost a grip on reality for two hours, called 911, told them that “time had slowed down” and took off running down a gravel road. We now keep bananas on hand at all times.
Jim, Bananas fer the orangatangs you hang out with, Right? Wiz
hehehhe
